JW Marriott Guanacaste Beach Resort
9.0 (96 reviews)

JW Marriott Guanacaste Beach Resort ★★★★★

📍 Hacienda Pinilla, Pinilla

"I mean, if I loved, I did not comment when paying the check out consumption from the beginning that in the menu prices did not include taxes (13%) and service (10%) what I was leaving 15% tips for myself as I didn't know that this service would be included in total I left 25%... Another point they wanted to charge me $460 others of I don't know what and I had to comment on the extra charge that obviously reduced me but if I don't look determinedly it charges me, the food is not really good if you can go to the restaurant the Lolas that is at 15 min in car I am widely recommended, the hotel is spectacular staff too, but I was not so happy for this kind of things"

Los Altos de Eros - Adults Only
9.7 (47 reviews)

Los Altos de Eros - Adults Only ★★★★

📍 Cañafistola, Provincia de, Pinilla

"I’ve been to many spas and this was one of the best spa experiences, especially for the price. The spa itself was clean and beautiful and the natural outdoor setting just made it so easy to relax. The staff was very friendly and all of my treatments were top notch, especially the massage. My group of girlfriends finished our experience with lunch and dessert at the spa. If I come back to Costa Rica, I will definitely be coming back here."

SoulShine
9.8 (73 reviews)

SoulShine ★★★

📍 Playa Avellana, Guanacaste Province, Santa Cruz, Pinilla

"Soul Shine was a wonderful experience. We were greeted by the owners and the staff as soon as we came. Every one of our needs was attended to. It’s a beautiful peaceful place. The food is positively out of this world. They arranged a Christmas dinner menu of small plates. That was the best meal of our whole vacation. I can’t say enough about Soul Shine."

Cabinas Las Olas
8.8 (26 reviews)

Cabinas Las Olas ★★★

📍 200mts norte, Tamarindo Santa Cruz Del Restaurante Rustico, Provincia de Guanacaste, Playa Avellanas, Pinilla

"Cabinas Las Olas was an incredible stay!! My boyfriend and I are already talking about when we want to come back. The rooms are spacious and have everything you need for a solid surf trip. Each of the cabins (or at least most) have a nice little deck with a hammock and some chairs. The rooms had a A/C and daily cleaning service. The receptionists worked not only as hotel receptionists, but also has the hotel staff that managed the surf shop, bar tenders, and also restaurant servers. The staff were all very were very kind and friendly. We loved the dynamic of the Cabinas Los Olas. All very down to earth people that just loved to surf. The hotel also has their own private wooden deck that connects to the beach, which made it very convenient to surf. Lastly, the hotel also booked our surfing lessons for Avenallas Soul Surf School us, which was a great recommendation as well and connected us to a great instructor, Julio. The hotel also booked us a taxi driver as well to help get leave Avellanas. Overall, highly recommend this stay if you are looking for a great surfing trip and can’t wait to go back and stay at Cabinas Las Olas!!!!"

SoulShine ★★★
"Very lovely hotel. Tranquil setting surrounded by lush vegetation. Easy access to the beach by walk or drive. The staff was very friendly and helpful with directions and activities. We stayed in the surfer's villa which was a nice space for a family of four. Plenty of room with a large refrigerator and gas stove. The restaurant was awesome. I would not hesitate to stay here again if we vacation in the Playa Avellanas area. We had a wonderful time."

Cabinas Las Olas ★★★
"Great place! Very comfy cabins with all what you need, nicely distributed in the landscape. The centrally located very nice resto serves good food including breakfasts. We saw a big family of monkeys playing around in the trees. A five minutes walk on a wooden footbridge bring you to a beautiful playa. great for surfers.Good for a stay of several days! Not far away from the tourist hotspot Tamarindo or from Playa Avellana."

Villas VR Beachwalk Avellanas ★★★
"While we had a rough start due to a lack of communication from the property, we were ultimately able to enjoy our stay. The place was clean, quaint, and comfortable, which made a positive difference once we settled in. Overall, the charm and cleanliness helped turn things around. This is not a beachfront property but rather a short drive to the beach, and it’s not a resort—it’s an adorable set of villas in a more rustic setting. Once expectations were aligned, the charm and cleanliness really stood out."
